Surely, only a Mother ......
.... could love these Crimson Rosella chicks.
We're not very hopeful of the last two eggs hatching.
Oh my goodness! No wonder they are unable to leave the nest - it's not because their feathers haven't grown, it's because they are not fit for public viewing yet!
A giggle was needed today... thank you. The birds are SO beautiful when attired, it made me laugh to see what looked like a couple of piles of fuzzy mold.. lol.. I love surprise wonderful endings...I love ugly seeds that turn out the most intricate beautiful plants. So glad you're able to share these pictures
Oh my..they're very....pink! But really, they're cute, in a helpless sort of way :) So how will you sort out the genders for the names? LOL I think you and your brother share a very similar sense of humour :) I hope those last 2 eggs hatch.
..there are human babies out there that only a mother could love!!! They are usually the ones that turn into stunning adults though!!!
ReplyDeleteAw gee, EVERYBODY loved you as a baby, Shelle. So what does that make you now?...lol
ReplyDeleteWhat odd-looking fuzzballs they are!
ReplyDeletePerhaps the last two eggs will still hatch - after all, didn't the eggs appear one by one over quite a prolonged period? I'm living in hope, anyway!
Bautiful babies, I'd say. They seem to grow allright. Wait a couple of days, and you'll see how lovely they'll be.
